Can an unconditional offer be withdrawn by a university?
My son's unconditional offer was withdrawn in a phone call today August 20th. They say they have changed the entry requirements to make it more academically challenging, and he needs 40 more UCAS points. If he had known he would have got these, but 8 months ago he was offered unconditional place.
Answered by Alison Patterson
I would strongly recommend chasing this one up. You must contact the university and also your son's school to find out all the details. Contact UCAS as well. And if you deem it necessary consider legal action.
